Autonomous systems have not become mainstream because of the shortcomings in the sensing of the environment and the required intelligence to react to it appropriately. Another hindrance to its maturity is the lack of a standard. Great innovations have been made in isolated applications for both sensing and intelligence, but it has been difficult to leverage them in other systems. Autonomous Solutions Inc. has built a development platform with the JPO JAUGS standard enabling rapid development of compliant hardware and software modules.
